This prominent tech event, with DXB News Network as the official media partner, showcased cutting-edge AI-driven digital health solutions that are redefining patient care on a global scale.
The gathering aligns with the UAE government's commitment to advancing the digital health ecosystem, with projections indicating that the UAE’s digital health market will reach USD $487.30 million by the end of 2024. The event underscores Dubai's dedication to integrating digital practices that benefit both medical professionals and patients.
With AI-powered healthcare investments expected to constitute 20% of global healthcare spending by year-end, GITEX GLOBAL provided a platform for industry leaders to explore how AI is transforming healthcare delivery and enhancing outcomes for millions of patients.
Pioneering Robotics and AI in Health Tech
GITEX DIGI_HEALTH 5.0 featured global professionals and leaders discussing the profound impact of innovative technologies on daily operations in healthcare. Notable participants included major players like Biogen, Roche, and Sanofi, alongside tech giants such as Microsoft, M42, and Lenovo, as well as esteemed medical institutions like Samsung Medical Centre and Harvard Medical School.
The event prominently highlighted the evolving role of robotics in health tech. Denis Ledenkof, Founder of Robosculptor, presented how AI-powered robotics are revolutionizing patient care through an autonomous platform designed for body treatments. He emphasized the advantages of robotic technology, stating, “AI is a powerful tool leading to improved patient preferences. Robotic treatments enhance patient experiences by providing access to a wider array of therapies.”
